Gilda and Amadeu, both facing terminal illness, enlist in a mysterious underground organisation in Portugal that promises a painless exit. When they uncover the scheme’s absurd truth, the two forge a surprising connection on their journey through Spain as they confront the boundaries between life, death and choice. 

With dark humour and intimacy, the film becomes a dream-strange tragicomedy on dignity, desire and disappearance.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the director.
